Kilonewton to teranewton converter (kN to TN)

Conversion Formula

1 kN = 1.00e-9 TN

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Kilonewton = 1,000.0 newtons
   1 Teranewton = 1,000,000,000,000 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 kN = (1,000.0 N) / (1,000,000,000,000 N/TN) = 1.00e-9 TN
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in kN by 1.00e-9 to get the equivalent in TN

Example Conversion

Convert 5 kN to TN:

5 kN × 1.00e-9 = 5.00e-9 TN
